Learning Tools – An AI Agent for Targeted Learning of New Skills in Digital Tools

The agent helps users build up digital tool skills they are missing in their design process, in a targeted way.

Based on input about their existing knowledge and personal preferences when choosing tools, the agent suggests individualized approaches. The three most suitable tools are presented along with the key information, so users can choose the tool that best fits their needs themselves. The options usually differ in their feature scope, cost, and learning curve, and offer different paths for realizing a given idea. Once a decision is made, the agent guides users step by step through to final implementation.

After each chat, the agent keeps learning through brief feedback. Newly acquired skills are added to the profile, points in the learning process that went well or less well are documented, and notes for future projects are recorded. This way, the agent always stays up to date and adapts to the user's own abilities and learning habits.

The agent thus becomes a learning and working aid that connects creative ideas with technical possibilities, making the path from initial idea to concrete implementation easier.

Realized as part of the seminar "Agenten für Alle(s)" ("Agents for Everything") (SS 2026, Generative Arts & Design Lab, HBKsaar), which is part of the research of the EU Horizon Europe project HAMLET (GA 101178362).
